    Windows Doesnt Find CD-RW Drive

    I have a laptop with windows 98se it only has an external CD-RW Drive. There is no floppy drive either. The external drive is USB but windows can't find drivers for it and the drivers that came with it are on a CD but I cant use the CD Drive. What do I Do?

    Is the laptop network capable if not then the only solution that comes to mind is to remove the drive and slave it into a desktop so that you can copy the files onto the harddrive.
